baudy2 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Hi all, I've purchased an external USB 2.4/5GHz compatible adapter and can see it in the list of wlan interfaces. How can i make it a monitoring interface ? The only way is to make it manually using a console commands ? Thank you for advice. Kind r4egards.

Use airmon-ng tool as usual to start/stop monitor mode of a capable device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When i enable the PineAP it again monitors ONLY on wlan0 Can you, please, explain more in details how to 1. Enable the monitoring on wlan3 on both frequencies 2. Make it default for the web interface when turning on PineAP feature ? Thank you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enable the monitoring on wlan3 on both frequencies Airmon-ng isn't used to specify channel, iwconfig or the application you use the monitor interface on (like airodump-ng) will usually specify the channel/band as an option. 53 minutes ago, baudy2 said: 2.

Maybe in the future it comes to GUI. For now use ssh/terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use it with kismet, airodump-ng and horst for example. Is there a specific thing you are trying to do or need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxtrot Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Supported (as in: we ship the driver in the firmware for it) adapters are as usable as they have ever been. The only thing that is not yet implemented (and coming soon in an update) is integration with Recon, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
